Due to an unfortunate mishap last week, my Canon EOS Rebel camera stopped performing correctly. Apparently, the camera fell from the sofa table onto the tile floor when one of the dogs (I assume) caught the camera strap that was hanging over the edge of the table. Despite the rubber camera armor, the lens hit the floor hard enough that it got jammed.
In addition to the lens jam, the autofocus would not work correctly with either of my other lenses. So, we ordered a new replacement camera, an EOS Rebel T3/1100D, a later version of the old EOS Rebel XSi/400D.
I took a few pictures with the new camera this afternoon and it seems to be working well. I will have to learn some of the new features on this camera since the upgrade included things that I do not yet know how to use. Expect to see some good photos over the next few days as more and more cactus flowers are blooming.
